System and method regarding controlling a computer system and computing directed to constant dollar instruments. The transmission family members include three planetary gear sets having five torque-transmitting mechanisms and two fixed interconnections. The increased volume of raw data is handled by either an improved compressiondecompression scheme using lossless compression, using lossy compression or using a shared bus with higher bandwidth. Thus it is possible to provide a polishing slurry and a polishing method which make it possible to polish a film made of silicon oxide or the like effectively and rapidly and further control the process therefor easily in CMP technique for flattening an interlayer insulating film, a BPSG film, an insulator film for shallow trench isolation, and other films. The filter cartridge can replace the porous seed container wall through which compressed air is discharged out the seed hopper air discharge vent. More particularly, it relates to stable colorants for a microcup-based electrophoretic or electromagnetophoretic display the cells of which are filled with charged andor magnetic particles dispersed in a halogenated, preferably a fluorinated, solvent.
